Hi,
I have this same problem on two of our servers! The 2 runs the same kernel:
2.4.1 with ACL patch and LVM 0.9.1beta4

With the second one, I can do much more tests than the other. It's a
semi-prod machine.
Here is what I did:

[root at zorro /root]# pvscan
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- ACTIVE   PV "/dev/md6"  is associated to an unknown VG (run
vgscan)
pvscan -- ACTIVE   PV "/dev/md7"  is associated to an unknown VG (run
vgscan)
pvscan -- ACTIVE   PV "/dev/md8"  is associated to an unknown VG (run
vgscan)
pvscan -- total: 3 [8.8 GB] / in use: 3 [8.8 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]
 
[root at zorro /root]# pvscan -u
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- ACTIVE   PV "/dev/md6" with UUID
"v7Y8gz-KMXB-d6Iq-Y0U1-iiSo-javD-wOL89P"  is associated to an
unknown VG (run vgscan)
pvscan -- ACTIVE   PV "/dev/md7" with UUID
"xTl7Nc-6DhQ-KV3c-HHd0-LI50-nQwq-wFBYCG"  is associated to an
unknown VG (run vgscan)
pvscan -- ACTIVE   PV "/dev/md8" with UUID
"oDXPq6-s9Zn-dOHF-ss8J-Rdxt-jTKT-wFoIGQ"  is associated to an
unknown VG (run vgscan)
pvscan -- total: 3 [8.8 GB] / in use: 3 [8.8 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]
 
[root at zorro /root]# vgscan
vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
vgscan -- no volume groups found
 
[root at zorro /root]# vgcreate
vgcreate -- ERROR: VGDA in kernel and lvmtab are NOT consistent; please run
vgscan
 
[root at zorro /root]#


What to do now?  I wait for your help!
Thanks
